Identification of Multiple Functional Receptors for Tyramine on an Insect Secretory Epithelium [PDF]
, 2017 The biogenic amine tyramine (TA) regulates many aspects of invertebrate physiology and development. Although three TA receptor subtypes have been identified (TAR1-3), specific receptors have not been linked to physiological responses in native tissue. In

THE NATURE OF ACETYLCHOLINE RECEPTOR [PDF]
Acta Medica Iranica, 1983 The present work with consideratlon to the autoradiographic pictures, suggests that cholinergic receptors are located at the gate of a channel originating from synaptic cleft coming to lie within the muscle fibre. AChE molecules stand at the gate of this

INFLUENCE OF “PRIMING” ON THE POTENCY OF NON-DEPOLARIZING NEUROMUSCULAR BLOCKING AGENTS
British Journal of Anaesthesia, 1987 Dose-response curves have been constructed to determine the ED50 and ED95 (doses required to produce a 50% and a 95% block, respectively) following administration of a small "priming" dose of atracurium 50 micrograms kg-1, vecuronium 10 micrograms kg-1 or pancuronium 10 micrograms kg-1.

Are non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents innocuous for the neonates? [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Anesthesia/Journal canadien d'anesthésie, 2005 tions and for the initial injection when a continuous infusion is used (for continuous plexus nerve block analgesia). Unfortunately, the labelled syringe used for continuous infusion is not a dedicated one (30 mL is too small: too frequent changes are needed). We use dedicated coiled lines as well (Figure, Vygon laboratories, Ecouen, France).
